Gravity
Navigating Life's Descent: Embracing the Pull of Gravity
Lyrics
I will not be here forever
I will not exist indefinitely
So I will not waste any time
Therefore, I won't squander any time
Just pick my head up off the bar dear
Lift my head from the bar, dear
Buy the next round
Buy the next round, expressing resilience
I'll be fine
I will be okay
Spoken like a poet
Expressed in the manner of a poet
Who's just too drunk to know that
Despite being too intoxicated to realize
Everybody falls in small degrees
Everyone experiences downfall gradually
Everybody falls in small degrees
Reiteration of the universal truth
That's gravity
Describing the force as gravity
Here within lies the king of Graceland
Refers to the king of Graceland, implying mortality
Which makes the point all too clear
Emphasizing the undeniable truth
We stand in long lines
We endure long waits in life
Praying our peace
Hoping for tranquility
And go home with a souvenir
Leaving with only memories
Only fools rush in
Discouraging impulsive actions
To save a desperate man
To rescue someone in despair may lead to folly
Everybody falls in small degrees
Reiteration of the gradual nature of setbacks
Everybody falls in small degrees
Restating the inevitability of falls
That's gravity
Attributing these falls to gravity
Pull me down, don't pull me down
Expressing a desire not to be brought down
Pull me down, don't pull me down
Reiterating the plea to avoid being pulled down
When I was little
Recalling childhood dreams of heroism
I used to dream that I had a cape
Imagining having a superhero cape
And I could fly
Believing in the ability to fly
I'd rescue my friends from burning buildings
Envisioning saving friends from danger
No one would ever die
An idealized scenario where no one suffers
Costumes fade fast
Acknowledging the transient nature of fantasies
And super powers pass
Realizing that extraordinary abilities fade
Everybody falls in small degrees
Restating the gradual decline faced by all
Everybody falls in small degrees
Reiteration of the universal truth
That's gravity
Summarizing life's inevitable force as gravity
